There are no absolutes. No right and wrong. Haven't you learned anything working for the Powers? There are only choices.

I am a woman of various inclinations and only some of the time are they to burn everything down in frustration

Hm, maybe I will try just hitting 1 next time, since I will have to make this call at some point.

Not so nice is that I'm about to ruin a Friday morning for a bunch of people because of a series of unfortunate events and an upset foreign government. - shrift

Suzi, I wish I had a magic solution for you. Instead, I can only offer your brackets. Much peace and strength to you.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.

Phone means I want to talk to a person

If there's a chance I can get through the full process without talking to a person, I will take it--that's optimal. But voice recognition is not good enough, and I don't want to end up yelling the same thing over and over into the phone. So I'd rather guess the right key combination to get where I need to, rather than explain it to someone and have all the stupidity that often incurs.

If you're going through hell/keep on going/don't slow down/keep your fear from showing/you might be gone/'fore the devil even knows you're there

What drives me nuts is when you have to give all sorts of information through the VR system, and then when you finally get to a person the first thing they ask for is all the same shit.

Yes, that's annoying.

Suzi, I'm pretty sure that when I was K-Bug's age I forgot to give my mother my new address and/or phone number a few times, just because it slipped my mind and I was used to Mom always knowing where I lived without me telling her.

Sometimes I trip on how happy we could be.

Yeah, VR or not that makes me nuts. I am CALLING from the phone number associated with the account! I just gave the computer my account number! Christ.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

The guy in front of me on the train has round plastic hoops, about two inches in diameter, in correspond big holes in his ears. Is there a term for that?

Spacers, I think.
